“I am trying out for softball,” Freshman Kinleigh Christian said. “I like playing in the outfield. I started playing baseball at a young age, I think I was 6 years old, but I knew I couldn’t do baseball. So I tried out softball. Softball is different from baseball; (in softball) the ball travels to the plate from the pitcher. In softball the pitcher does a little circle and then releases the ball, the ball will travel up while a pitcher in baseball will overhand throw it causing it to travel down. I have a lot of big cheerleaders in softball but I think the two main ones are my mom because she has been to every game I’m in and Shyanne Blackerby because every time I do something wrong she is there for me. If I do something wrong like swing or I am behind the ball she lets me know and I fix it.”

About the Contributor
Emma Earl, News, Editor-in-Chief
Hola, I’m Emma! I’m a junior and this is my second year here on the newspaper staff and my third in the journalism program. This year I have the honor of being the editor-in-chief of the paper and being able to share y’alls stories and accomplishments. Outside of the journalism program, I do Spanish and theatre, and I take kickboxing outside of school. A little bit about me is that I love writing, listening to music (my current favorite artist Laufey), The Legend of Zelda and I’m a huge book lover as well as a frequent iced coffee drinker. If I’m not in the journalism room you’ll probably find me hanging out with my friends, or getting a coffee from Journey Coffee to power me through the day. I’m so happy to be bringing the news to y’all this year and I am so excited to see what this year will bring!
